Smithfield Foods posts lower Q3 profit but strong Packaged Meats segment and completes Nathan’s Famous acquisition

Smithfield Foods reported a third quarter operating profit of $127 million, down from $310 million the previous year, mainly due to softer commodity markets affecting its Fresh Pork and Hog Production segments. However, its Packaged Meats segment showed strength with a slight profit increase and is on track for its fifth consecutive year above $1 billion in operating profit. The company also completed the acquisition of Nathan’s Famous, expanding its brand portfolio. Despite challenges, Smithfield maintains a strong balance sheet and updated its 2026 outlook, expecting total adjusted operating profit between $900 million and $1 billion.
